Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Islet's Spirit: A Drama, in Four Acts and Five Scenes
Brand - Dearest Amelia, (sees half sixpence and kisses it; then kisses Amelia), I have but a moment to stay; I am the victim of my own rash generosity, and I have come to say good-bye. Pay heed; I am suspected of a robbery on the highway last night, and to save a friend, the perpetrator of the deed; to save his life and reputation, I risk my own life and sacrifice my good name; I must fly the country! Amelia - Oh, James, do not kill me Stay and vindicate your self for my sake. Noble and generous as such a sacrifice is, a rob ber and thief is unworthy of it.
